I got a TurboGrafx 16 when it first came out. I thank my aunt and uncle for having the foresight to recognize the systems uniqueness. They also bought the Turbo Express with the TV tuner. They also had 2 Atari Lynxes. The ultimate aunt and uncle!

The colors on the pc engine are so vibrant, its insane. Surprising it wasnt as popular here in the US. My first system was a Sega Genesis, but i would have taken a PC Engine all day
@SkitBitProduction3 жыл бұрын
Part of the reason is TurboGrafx had few games come from japan because NEC didn't trust it
@renanfelipedossantos59132 жыл бұрын
The main reason was mostly market timing. The TurboGrafx was delayed in America so it had to compete against Sega Genesis/Megadrive and Super Nintendo.
@fungo6631 Жыл бұрын
It was marketed like crap and came way too late. The PC Engine competed with the Famicom in Japan back in 1987. Had it been released in the west at the time, it would've competed pretty well against the NES, Master System and the Amiga even!

I bought the turbografx + cd add on when it originally came out in the US. I saw the potential. Too bad leadership didn't. Games took way too long to get released in the US, and too few of them.

spent many years of my youth playing pc engine, had a rare 5 player multitap, motoroader was so good with 5 players and dungeon explorer, this is the only console i ever owned when i sold it i got 3 times as much as what i payed for it, i have an emulator now with at least 180 pc engine games, great memories thanks for putting this on youtube!

Good video. All these years certain video game magazines of that time hyped up the PC Engine as an amazing console. Lots of puzzle and shoot'em ups, and RPGs mostly. Afterburner looked great.
@mariusamber32373 жыл бұрын
Well, not 'too' many RPGs here, there are way more on the CD add-on. Shame it was a pretty much non-existent system here in Europe. I really like the colours in these games, they look really nice aesthetically.

Really great video. I loved watching it and actually used it to add quite a few titles to my 'buy list'. Hoping for a longer version so we can see the gameplay a bit more. Some of the fragments felt a bit on the short side.

Interesting console, it reminds me of Sega Saturn - popular in Japan with many exclusive games - but completely overlooked in the west with very few games available.
